Welcome to the Three Martini lunch.

Grab a stole next to Greg Carumbus of Radio America and Jim Garrity of National Review.

Three Martini's coming up.

So glad you're here. It's coming up.

So glad you're here. It's the Thursday edition of the Three Martini lunch.

Grab your stool.

And Jim, poor Bernie, just can't catch a break.

All night long, even though he won in New Hampshire he kept

hearing how it was closer than it should have been and Buda Judge is the one with real

momentum but no wait it's third place Amy Klobuchar with the momentum and

even I think before his speech was done we found out that he had some bad news waiting for

him in Nevada the Nevada independent reporting late on Tuesday that the very powerful and very large culinary

union has been circulating a flyer which compares six of the Democratic candidates for president on a number of issues and they call

out Bernie Sanders for Medicare for all because they don't like that.

Here's what the independent says.

The culinary union which provides health insurance

to 130,000 workers and their family members through a special trust fund

strongly opposes Medicare for all on the basis that it would eliminate the health insurance they have

negotiated for over several decades. Health insurance provided by the

culinary health fund is considered to be some of the best in the state and the union even opened a 60,000 square foot state of the art health clinic a couple of years ago for its members and it's considered to be one of the most powerful unions in the state, 60,000 members,

which is obviously quite significant since Nevada is not the most populous state in the union.

So, Jim, I find this quite ironic.
